Every Year the Calgary Mayor proclaims the entire month of
March as Community Association Awareness Month!
What is a Community Association?
Community associations have the unique ability to mobilize, support, and interact with their residents to improve neighbourhood life in Calgary.
Everyday, they make significant contributions to the health and well-being of your community. Community associations exist in every neighbourhood in Calgary – they are non-profit organizations run by your neighbours and other volunteers that connect you, act as a voice for your area, and offer you endless opportunities close to home.
